Its construction was projected by the architect Frederick Williams Stevens in 1878 inspired by the European medieval world, although with Indian touches.

St. Pancras Station, London

In the north of the city of London, in the Candem district, we find St. Pancras, a station that was almost demolished in the 1960s, something that did not happen thanks to the protests of the citizen. Attached to the station is the St. Pancras Renaissance London Hotel, which was reopened in 2011 after being idle for 75 years.
